But just a year ago, B.C.’s anti-gang agency described Wallace as a member of the 856 Gang after he was arrested with Langley resident Leonard Pelletier, 49.

Pelletier is a cousin of Green, the high-ranking Hells Angel found dead about 10:30 a.m. Sunday in the 23700-block of 72nd Avenue.

The murder is believed to have stemmed from a dispute at an all-night party.

At the time of Green’s slaying, Wallace was out on $1,000 bail after being arrested with Pelletier on several charges of possession for the purpose of trafficking in June 2015.

The charges stemmed from a 2014 investigation by the Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit into drug trafficking activities by the 856 Gang.

Officers searched a rented apartment in the 4600-block of 236th Street in Langley and discovered large quantities of cocaine, methamphetamine, heroin, OxyContin, and a cocaine-cutting agent, as well a 20-ton press used to create bricks of cocaine.

The gang takes its name from the telephone prefix for Aldergrove and has expanded into other parts of B.C. and Alberta in recent years.

Wallace has a long and violent history in B.C.

He pleaded guilty eight years ago to aggravated assault for stabbing a student after a high school graduation party in Langley. He got a 21-month conditional sentence.

“The attack was completely unprovoked and the victim did not know his assailant,” RCMP Cpl. Diane Blaine.

Wallace had originally been charged with attempted murder for the stabbing.

Jason Francis Wallace, 27, is seen at age 18 when he was charged in connection with a stabbing at a grad party.

He was also charged, along with Pelletier’s son Caylen and a third man, in 2010 with trying to run over a pedestrian with a truck in a parking lot near a community police office. In that case, Wallace and Pelletier were eventually acquitted on all charges. Co-accused Craig Ivan Dennis was convicted only on one count of theft.

All three men were originally charged with attempted kidnapping, while Pelletier was charged with uttering threats, Wallace was charged with dangerous operation of a motor vehicle and Dennis was charged with robbery and theft.

Green’s friend Debra Atherton was devastated to get the news of Sunday’s slaying.

She said that Green “was a wonderful man with a big heart who absolutely loved his family and was always showing people pictures of his kids, he was a good dad and so proud of his kids.”

When her husband died in a motorcycle accident, “Bob was there for me and my baby whole-heartedly. ”

“He would take us on his family trips, include us in his Christmas festivities and all other holidays, he treated my daughter like one of his own and that was something she desperately needed when we lost her dad. Bob was there for me until I didn’t need him so much anymore,” she said in an email. “Through the years he has always been there for me and never judged me for my mistakes, always had a big smile and warm hugs when we saw each other. He was one of my dearest friends.”
